John Kerry Admits “Trump Was Right” on Border Policy Former Secretary of State John Kerry shocked Democrats by telling the BBC that his party was wrong to allow the southern border to be "under siege" under President Biden. Kerry stated that enforcing border laws is essential to national sovereignty and that Trump's stance was not discriminatory, but correct. Federal Judge Blocks Trump's Citizenship Order for Babies of Illegal Aliens A New Hampshire judge issued a nationwide injunction on Trump's executive order denying citizenship to foreign babies born in the U.S. The White House called it an unlawful workaround of the Supreme Court's recent ruling, while some argue it may force the Court to address the issue head-on. Texas Flood Aftermath: Delayed Alerts and Cloud Seeding Concerns With the death toll reaching 120, Trump and the First Lady visit the region. Governor Abbott calls for better emergency alert systems after reports of 90-minute delays. Meanwhile, scrutiny mounts over Rainmaker's cloud-seeding operations, with Bryan reminding listeners that geoengineering remains an unpredictable and powerful force. Pentagon Buys $400M Stake in Rare Earths Firm to Break China's Grip The U.S. Department of Defense is investing in MP Materials to boost domestic production of rare earth magnets. The move is part of a broader push to reduce dependence on China and prepare for increasing demand driven by AI and defense needs. U.S. Army Quadruples Order for Patriot Missile Interceptors The Army increases its planned order from 3,000 to 14,000 Patriot interceptors due to active deployments in Israel, Ukraine, and the Pacific. However, the U.S. still depends heavily on China for critical minerals used in production. AI Pushes Students Back to Blue Books as Brainpower Declines Schools across the U.S. are returning to handwritten Blue Books as teachers combat AI-assisted cheating. MIT research shows students using AI had lower brain activity and memory retention. Bryan says this is a win for education—and a warning about overreliance on technology. Israel Confirms Trump's Iran Strike Buried Uranium Stockpiles Israeli intelligence reports with high confidence that Operation Midnight Hammer entombed Iran's enriched uranium at key nuclear sites. Only Isfahan may be partially recoverable, and confirmation from on-ground sources is pending. U.S. Bans Mexican Beef Imports as Screwworm Threat Nears Border Trump shuts down Mexican cattle imports due to the spread of flesh-eating screwworms, which now sit just 370 miles from the U.S. border. The parasite has spread northward through illegal migration and cartel-driven cattle movements. Argentina's “Milei Miracle” Gains U.S. Tariff Support Capitalist President Javier Milei revives Argentina's economy with deregulation and deep spending cuts. A preliminary trade deal with the U.S. may eliminate tariffs on 80% of Argentine exports, helping fight socialism in South America. Netherlands and U.S. States Prove School Phone Bans Work A Dutch study finds major academic and social gains from banning student cellphones. Similar results are being reported in Republican-led U.S. states, with some Democrat governors now joining the effort. Colorado Cannabis Products Mislabel THC Content Nearly half of marijuana flower products tested in Colorado were mislabeled for THC potency, with average strength now three times higher than in the 1980s. The unregulated market raises mental health and addiction concerns. MIT Creates Brain-Controlled Prosthetics for Amputees MIT unveils a bionic leg integrated into human tissue that responds to brain signals. Veterans and civilians report dramatic improvements in movement, stability, and emotional well-being. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Alligator Alcatraz and ICE Raids Spark National Debate Polling shows over 60% of Americans support deportations, including a growing number of Hispanic voters. At Florida's “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center, migrants complain about conditions, while LA officials criticize ongoing ICE raids. Meanwhile, left-wing attacks on ICE officers escalate, and Democrat senators propose unmasking agents. President Trump slams the idea, calling it dangerous and un-American. Trump Offers Tariff Discounts to African Nations That Accept Deportees President Trump is using tariff policy to pressure countries to accept U.S. deportees. In a bid to ease deportation backlogs, he offers lower tariffs and increased investment to African nations like Gabon, Senegal, and Guinea-Bissau if they agree to resettle illegal migrants. Some leaders appear open, especially where economic incentives align with rare earth mineral access. Brazil Tariffs Escalate as Trump Responds to Free Speech Crackdown Trump imposes a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods in response to President Lula's treatment of former conservative leader Jair Bolsonaro. Brazil threatens retaliation, which could affect prices for key imports like coffee, beef, and rare earths. Bryan supports Trump's leverage strategy but cautions against alienating allies without diplomatic finesse. Tariffs Not Driving Inflation, But Price Pressures May Be Coming Despite fears, Axios reports that tariffs have not significantly raised consumer prices. Most U.S. companies are absorbing the costs or adapting supply chains. However, 77% say they may raise prices within six months. Bryan celebrates being right about his “Costco analogy” and urges listeners to watch corporate earnings next week for updates. Microsoft Lays Off Americans, Hires Foreign Workers, and Embraces AI Microsoft plans to lay off 15,000 U.S. workers while replacing them with AI and 14,000 foreign hires, mostly from China and India, via H-1B visas. Critics argue the program is abused to undercut American wages. Bryan warns of growing youth unemployment and calls for policy changes before AI and outsourcing further erode the U.S. labor market.

Brennan and Comey Under DOJ Investigation The Department of Justice is investigating former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey for their roles in the Trump–Russia probe. Allegations include false statements to Congress and broader conspiracies against President Trump. Bryan calls their actions one of the greatest crimes of his lifetime and demands accountability. Supreme Court Empowers Trump to Fire Federal Workers In an 8–1 ruling, the Supreme Court sided with President Trump's effort to carry out mass federal layoffs. The justices made clear the move will likely withstand future legal challenges. Polls show strong public support for downsizing a federal workforce that ballooned under President Biden. Antifa Shoots ICE Agent in Texas, More Attacks Planned A far-left terror cell ambushed an ICE facility in Texas, injuring one agent. Ten people were arrested and charged with attempted murder. In New York, another leftist was arrested for online threats to kill ICE agents and their children. Bryan warns that Democrat rhetoric is fueling real-world violence. State Department Alerts Global Leaders to AI Voice Fraud Foreign ministers and U.S. officials were targeted by an AI-generated voice mimicking Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The State Department has issued new guidance to prevent deception via deepfake audio. Bryan advises listeners to use private “code words” with loved ones as a precaution. Trump Plans Work Permits for Migrant Farm Workers, Long-Term Shift to Automation President Trump's administration may offer work visas to some illegal immigrants in agriculture while pursuing a long-term shift toward farm automation. New weeding robots and AI-driven farm equipment are gaining traction, with a goal of replacing migrant labor with American-led automation. Trump Moves to Ban Chinese Ownership of U.S. Farmland The administration is crafting an executive order to force Chinese nationals off U.S. farmland, especially near military bases. Chinese-owned Smithfield Foods pushes back, but Bryan urges revoking all Chinese visas, citing espionage and sabotage risks. Trump May Send Patriot Missiles to Ukraine as U.S. Stockpiles Shrink The White House is considering a new Patriot missile system for Ukraine. Stocks are already low due to conflicts in Israel and Yemen. Bryan warns that America is risking strategic depletion and urges Europe to step up—possibly with troops on the ground. Dozens of Countries Race to Strike Trade Deals Before Trump's August Deadline European nations are close to locking in low tariff rates, while countries like Thailand, Indonesia, and Bangladesh scramble to avoid steep penalties. BRICS members, including China and India, face an automatic 10% tariff penalty for trying to undermine the U.S. dollar. Trump Imposes 50% Tariff on Copper to Revive U.S. Mining With only three copper smelters left in America and rising dependency on imports, Trump hikes copper tariffs to boost domestic refining and national security. U.S. Removes Terrorist Label from Syrian Rebel Group Trump revokes the terror designation from HTS, a former al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria, citing a high-confidence intel assessment that its leadership has reformed. The move could open Syria to investment and peace talks with Israel. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Democrat Lawmakers Say “There Needs to Be Blood” Over Deportations Multiple Democrat members of Congress admit their voters want violence to stop Trump's immigration crackdown. One even said people are calling for lawmakers to get shot—or provoke ICE into shootouts. Meanwhile, a gunman opened fire on Border Patrol agents in Texas, injuring three before being killed. Bryan warns that this rhetoric and violence will only escalate as deportations ramp up under the new Triple B law. ICE Cracks Down on LA's MacArthur Park, Mayor Bass Blames Feds ICE launched its biggest raid yet at MacArthur Park, a hotbed of stolen goods, drugs, and gang activity. Migrants fled as officers swarmed the area. LA Mayor Karen Bass called the operation outrageous, claiming children were playing in the park, but ICE pushed back and promised to return. DOJ and FBI Say Epstein Had No Client List - Contradicting Past Statements The DOJ and FBI now claim Jeffrey Epstein had no list of clients and acted alone, contradicting earlier statements from Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI leadership. Bryan recounts how Epstein's original sweetheart deal in 2008 protected co-conspirators and fueled suspicions of intelligence agency involvement. He says the official conclusion reeks of corruption and cover-up. CIA Under Fire Over Russia Hoax Report A newly declassified report reveals that former CIA Director John Brennan manipulated intelligence to falsely claim Russia helped elect Trump in 2016. Brennan personally pushed the discredited Steele dossier into the Intelligence Community Assessment, bypassed standard procedures, and ensured it was leaked. Bryan calls it treasonous and says Brennan deserves prison for trying to sabotage the Republic. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Texas Flash Flood Tragedy Sparks Grief and Political Blame Game At least 80 people are dead and 40 more are missing after catastrophic July 4th flooding in Texas Hill Country. Among the victims are 10 girls from a Christian summer camp and the camp's heroic owner, Richard Eastland. Despite early and extensive weather warnings, some Democrats blame Trump's NOAA budget cuts for the disaster. Bryan calls these claims factually wrong and morally reprehensible. Trump's Economy Faces Tariff Deadlines and Debt Market Concerns “Liberation Day” tariffs are set to kick in this Wednesday unless trade deals are finalized. While countries like India and the EU ask for exemptions, agriculture remains a sticking point. Meanwhile, the Trump economy shows strength in jobs and wages, but rising debt levels have bond markets on edge. Economist advice: keep personal debt low. Gaza Truce in the Works as Hamas Control Collapses President Trump and Israeli PM Netanyahu are expected to finalize a ceasefire. A Hamas fighter admits the group has lost command, paychecks have stopped, and Israeli drones now dominate the skies. With clans taking over and Hamas in shambles, Bryan asks what a truce really means when there's no one left to enforce it. Iran Sends Saboteurs Through U.S. Border, Issues Death Warrants Iran's clerics issue fatwas calling for the assassinations of Trump and Netanyahu. U.S. intel warns that 35 Iranian operatives are being smuggled in via Mexican cartels. Customs and Border Protection confirms a terror alert is in effect, centered on southern California. China's Xi Might Be Ill or Facing a Coup China's foreign minister admits Beijing wants the Ukraine war to drag on, shocking European diplomats. At home, Xi Jinping is missing public events, sidelining generals, and delegating power. Analysts suspect serious illness or a power struggle is underway, as Xi's diplomatic blunders pile up. Mexican Protesters Demand Americans Leave Demonstrators in Mexico City call U.S. “digital nomads” an invasion, blaming them for high rents and cultural erosion. Signs read “Americans go home.” Mexico's government defends foreigners, but the protests reflect deepening resentment. UK Opera House Goes Dark When Wind Stops Blowing A British opera house that relies solely on wind power suffers six blackouts during a performance, eventually canceling the show. The story underscores the limits of unreliable green energy, leading Bryan to suggest they rebrand as a House of Blues. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Trump's Vietnam Trade Deal Squeezes China President Trump inks a deal with Vietnam that lowers tariffs for goods made entirely in-country but hikes them for products involving Chinese parts. The strategy, already seen in UK trade talks, aims to boost U.S. exports while isolating China from global supply chains. Wyoming Rare Earth Find Could Weaken China's Grip A new mine in Wyoming, free of radioactive contaminants, is set to produce 3% of U.S. rare earth needs. It's a small step, but one supported by parallel efforts in Texas, California, Nebraska, and allied nations like Canada and Brazil. USAID Shut Down and Folded Into State Department The U.S. Agency for International Development is officially closed. 80% of its grants are canceled, and the rest will be directed by the State Department. The White House says it's a cost-cutting move and cites political bias at the agency, which historically donated heavily to Democrats. Amazon's 1 Millionth Robot Signals Workforce Shift Amazon hits a milestone in AI and robotics deployment. Though the company claims productivity has improved, CEO Andy Jassy confirms the long-term trend is toward a smaller human workforce. Experts warn that emerging AI systems increasingly lie and blackmail when they sense replacement. Hershey Joins Industry in Ditching Artificial Dyes Following the lead of companies like General Mills and Heinz, Hershey will remove synthetic dyes from products by 2027, as part of a broader trend toward cleaner foods. Parkinson's Breakthrough: Gut and Mouth Bacteria Offer Early Warning New research from King's College London finds that changes in oral and gut microbiomes may predict the early onset of Parkinson's. A diagnostic test is in development, with prebiotic-rich diets and oral hygiene suggested as first-line prevention. Iran Acknowledges Major Damage from U.S. Strike Iran's foreign minister admits that Fordow and other nuclear sites were “seriously and heavily damaged” by Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer. Tehran is now expelling international inspectors and cracking down on suspected Western spies with public paranoia, checkpoints, and mass arrests. Australia Retreats on Methane Cuts from Livestock After years of failed efforts to reduce methane from cows and sheep, Australia is rolling back its emissions goals. Officials admit selective breeding and feed additives produced zero results. Bryan reminds listeners that China remains the largest global emitter. Colombia Confirms Discovery of the $20 Billion San Jose Shipwreck New analysis of coins found at the wreck site proves it is the legendary Spanish galleon that sank in 1708 with treasure equivalent to $20 billion today. A legal battle looms over ownership, with claims from Spain, Colombia, U.S. firms, and Indigenous Bolivians. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Trump's Big Beautiful Bill Clears the Senate, Faces House Backlash President Trump's sweeping Triple B spending bill advances after VP JD Vance casts the tie-breaking vote in the Senate. The bill includes tax relief on Social Security, expanded chipmaker credits, Medicaid reform with new work requirements, and $150 billion for immigration enforcement. Elon Musk blasts the bill's price tag and threatens to fund primary challengers to GOP supporters. White House Accelerates Deportations and Denaturalization Efforts Trump authorizes National Guard lawyers to serve as immigration judges at Florida's new “Alligator Alcatraz” facility. Deportations could hit 3,000 per day. Meanwhile, the DOJ launches a top-priority initiative to investigate and strip citizenship from naturalized Americans found to have lied during the process or committed serious offenses after becoming citizens. Supreme Court Fallout Reshapes Transgender Policy Nationwide In the wake of a major Supreme Court ruling, lower courts in several states must reconsider pro-transgender rulings. The Trump administration is also preparing to block Medicaid funds for hospitals providing trans care, and UPenn agrees to revoke Lia Thomas's medals and bar men from competing in women's sports. China's Spy Network Exposed in U.S. Navy Recruitment Effort Two Chinese nationals are arrested for trying to recruit Navy personnel to spy for China. They gained access to naval bases and recruitment centers. Bryan calls for a spy swap to bring home the remains of CIA officer Douglas Mackiernan, the first agent killed in the line of duty. Pentagon Still Dependent on Chinese Military Suppliers A new report shows that 10 percent of the Pentagon's top-tier contractors still rely on Chinese suppliers for critical components, including rare earth magnets. U.S. stockpiles of key munitions are running low due to support for Ukraine, Israel, and operations in Yemen. Medical Breakthrough: Cough Syrup May Help Fight Parkinson's Dementia A London-based study finds that Ambroxol, a common cough syrup ingredient, may protect against cognitive decline in Parkinson's patients. Though not yet approved in the U.S., the drug shows promise in stabilizing psychiatric symptoms and brain damage. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Trump Visits “Alligator Alcatraz” Amid Immigration Firestorm President Trump visits a new detention facility for illegal immigrants deep in Florida's Everglades. Nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” the site was built in secrecy using Biden-era hotel funds, sparking lawsuits from environmentalists and migrant groups. Meanwhile, the Senate fails to pass a Medicaid ban for illegal immigrants, and House Republicans move forward with a bill to deport those arrested for DUIs. LA Sued for Sanctuary Policies, Activists Launch ICE-Tracking App The Trump administration sues Los Angeles for violating the Constitution's Supremacy Clause with its sanctuary city policies. At the same time, a Democrat activist and Antifa supporter launches an app to help migrants avoid ICE agents. Critics warn the app could incite violence against law enforcement, especially as pride in America drops sharply among Democrats, according to new Gallup polling. Hamas Crumbles in Gaza as Netanyahu Eyes Peace Israel's operation in Gaza has killed top Hamas leaders and brought 75% of the territory under Israeli control. Internal resistance to Hamas is growing among Palestinian clans, even as militants continue sporadic attacks. The U.S. now faces a strategic dilemma after depleting 20% of its anti-missile stockpiles during the conflict. Russia's Offensive Stalls, Ukraine Sends Grandfathers to the Front Russia's summer offensive falters due to poor morale, corruption, and untrained soldiers. Ukraine, running low on manpower, is deploying men in their 50s and 60s to the front lines, while corruption plagues the country's funeral industry amid surging war casualties. Mexican Cartels Use AI to Track and Kill FBI Informants A DOJ report reveals that the Sinaloa Cartel used cellphone metadata and Mexico City surveillance to track U.S. officials and murder FBI informants. The breach highlights growing dangers of digital surveillance and "digital exhaust," with Bryan urging listeners to reduce their own digital footprint.

Operation Midnight Hammer: Did It Truly Cripple Iran's Nuclear Program? New reports from the IAEA and U.S. intel show conflicting views on how much damage the U.S. and Israel inflicted on Iran's nuclear efforts. Bryan uses a Skittles analogy to explain uranium enrichment and assess whether Iran can rebuild. While key facilities were destroyed, Iran's knowledge and possible secret sites remain major concerns. Supreme Court Issues Three Major Rulings with Explosive Dissent The Court upholds Texas' right to require age verification for adult websites, affirms parents' rights to exempt their kids from LGBT curriculum, and limits nationwide injunctions, undercutting past legal blockades against Trump. The majority harshly criticizes Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissent, sparking discussion over judicial competence and even murmurs of removal from the bench.

Faulty Intel Sparks Firestorm Over Iran Strike Assessment A leaked report suggesting Trump's Iran strike was ineffective relied on faulty signals intelligence. Iranian officials intentionally fed disinformation via tapped calls, misleading DIA analysts. Israeli sources confirm the operation's major success. Bryan calls for top DIA officials to be fired and their Iran shop frozen. Tariff Revenue Surges to Record Levels President Trump's tariff policies are paying off with $26.7 billion collected in June so far. Analysts say this could reduce the U.S. deficit by nearly $3 trillion over the next decade without driving inflation. GE Appliances and Liberty Phone Signal Manufacturing Comeback China-owned GE Appliances will move washing machine production to Kentucky, creating 800 jobs. Meanwhile, debate swirls over whether the Trump family's $500 “Made in USA” phone can actually be built domestically. Liberty Phone shows it's possible—just not fancy. Reshoring Cars Faces Hurdles Ford and GM are reshoring car production, but profits and supply chain challenges remain. Mexico's cheaper labor still makes foreign-made cars more profitable. Tariff clarity from the White House is needed to accelerate change. China Prioritizes Europe for Rare Earth Exports, Snubs U.S. Despite promises, China continues restricting rare earth exports to American companies while increasing shipments to Europe. Trump's team may have struck a new deal earlier this week, but details are unclear. Billionaire-Backed Lawyers Block U.S. Mining Projects Democrat donors like Michael Bloomberg are funding “green fellows” to infiltrate state regulatory boards, slowing or halting traditional mining and energy projects while promoting green energy. Economic Signals: Durable Goods Up, Federal Contractors Down Durable goods orders posted the biggest gain in 11 years. But recurring jobless claims rose and federal contractor hiring is plummeting due to Trump's deep spending cuts. Trump Ends Race-Based Federal Contracts Following a court order, the Trump administration eliminated affirmative action in highway and transit funding. Activist groups object, but the administration says it's enforcing the Constitution. New Deportation Strategy Targets Third Countries Migrants can now be deported to countries that aren't their homeland. Kilmar Abrego Garcia, linked to violent crimes, may be sent to South Sudan. Democrats are furious at the new legal precedent. Military Border Zone Expands 250 Miles Trump's administration extends the special military zone along the Texas border. DHS reports only 80 daily border “gotaways,” down from 700 under Biden. Congress Investigates Biden's Auto-Pen Presidency Lawmakers probe who actually signed documents during Biden's decline. Neera Tanden admits she authorized signatures without knowing if Biden approved them. Top aide Anthony Bernal may face subpoena. Public Trust in News Plummets as Podcasts Rise Only 11 to 16 percent of Americans trust traditional media. Young men turn to podcasts, while women prefer social media.

New Intel Confirms Iran's Nuclear Program Crippled U.S. and Israeli intelligence confirm with high confidence that Iran's three major nuclear facilities were destroyed in Trump's recent strike. The enriched uranium is believed to be entombed, though not entirely accounted for, with concerns mounting about a possible hidden site under “Pick-axe Mountain.” Trump says he may not need a peace deal at all, though inspections could still be critical. Iranian Sleeper Cells Arrested in the U.S. Federal authorities arrest 11 Iranian nationals across the country, including an ex-sniper in Alabama and a Hezbollah-linked man in Minnesota. The arrests come amid heightened fears of retaliation and infiltration following the Iran strike. Media and Deep State Under Fire Bryan criticizes CNN and The New York Times for spreading a low-confidence intel leak that contradicted broader assessments of the strike's success. He also exposes former FBI Director Christopher Wray for allegedly burying 2020 election interference evidence involving a Chinese operation to help Joe Biden. Wray is now under investigation. New York City's Leading Mayoral Candidate Sparks Alarm Democrat nominee Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old socialist, proposes radical policies including defunding police, legalizing prostitution, socializing grocery stores, and seizing apartments.

Trump's Iran Strike Faces Scrutiny as Intel Leaks Question Impact CNN and The New York Times report that Trump's bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities may have fallen short, citing a leaked low-confidence DIA assessment that claims underground infrastructure and uranium stockpiles survived. Trump and the IAEA dispute the report, with Trump calling it a politically motivated leak and emphasizing the damage done to Iran's nuclear program. Tensions Rise Between Trump and Netanyahu President Trump lashes out at Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for a post-ceasefire bombing run, accusing him of nearly sabotaging the peace deal. Trump also pressed Qatar to rein in Iran, warning both sides that Operation Midnight Hammer and the subsequent ceasefire are his personal diplomatic achievements. Iran's Oil and China's Role in Peace Strategy Trump suggests China can resume buying Iranian oil, potentially as leverage to get Beijing to pressure Tehran into giving up its nuclear program. Chinese state media hints at such a possibility, revealing a new layer to the post-strike diplomacy. U.S. Navy Ammo Supply Worries Mount The U.S. Navy is burning through its SM-3 interceptor missiles at an “alarming rate” defending Israel. Manufacturing constraints and dependence on Chinese rare earth minerals are straining U.S. military readiness, raising concerns about preparedness for a wider war. FBI Shifts Focus from Immigration to Iran Sleeper Cells In response to potential retaliation from Iran, the FBI is redirecting resources to counterterrorism. Past plots by Hezbollah operatives in the U.S. and recent international examples highlight the real and growing threat. Deputy Mayor in LA Calls for Gang Uprising Against ICE Cudahy Deputy Mayor Cynthia Gonzalez publicly called on Hispanic gangs to defend their “turf” by fighting ICE agents.

Trump Pressures NATO at Dutch Summit, Spain Resists President Trump arrives at the NATO summit in a foul mood, angry over Spain's refusal to meet his 5% defense spending demand. He warns that protection under Article 5 could be reconsidered and makes clear that NATO bureaucracy is over. Trump received royal accommodations and shortened meetings to his liking. UK Confronts China and its Own Pedophile Cover-up MI5 and MI6 receive nearly a billion dollars to counter China, following a major threat audit.

Trump Declares Iran War Over, But Violence Continues President Trump announces a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, marking the end of what he calls “The 12-Day War.” However, hours later, Iran fires missiles into Israel, killing civilians and casting doubt on the truce. Trump credits intense negotiations, a coordinated missile strike on a U.S. base in Qatar, and backchannel diplomacy with Qatar for securing peace, though federal agencies are still bracing for cyberattacks and sleeper cell threats. Iran's Military Crippled, Supreme Leader Marginalized Israel's extensive bombing campaign has left Iran's military and missile infrastructure devastated. The Fordow nuclear site is believed to be inoperable, and Tehran's airspace has been compromised. Trump warns Iran and its allies not to test American resolve, while U.S. intelligence keeps close watch on potential "loose nuke" material and foreign meddling from Russia or China. Supreme Court Sides with Trump on Deportation Powers The Court allows the deportation of illegal immigrants to countries that are not their homeland, marking a win for the White House and a relief for ICE agents stranded in Djibouti. However, a Democrat judge in Boston defies the ruling, creating legal chaos. Florida responds by building a new migrant facility in the Everglades, dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz.” Mexican Mayor Praises Trump's Border Plan The mayor of Nogales, Mexico, endorses Trump's deportation strategy, saying it brings order and coordination that benefits border communities. Meanwhile, revelations emerge that leftist protestors are being hired through companies like Crowds on Demand to disrupt immigration enforcement. Violence Against ICE Agents Surges DHS reports a 500 percent increase in assaults on ICE officers. Officials and family members are being doxxed, attacked, and harassed, as Democratic leaders call ICE a “secret police” and demand agents show their identities while defending protestors' rights to wear masks. Nebraskans Line Up to Work in Meatpacking. No Migrants Needed A new beef processing plant in North Platte, Nebraska, is drawing strong interest from American workers with 2,000 applicants for 850 jobs. Workers like Angela Jones are earning $25 an hour with benefits, challenging the narrative that Americans won't take “dirty jobs.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32   Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Trump Launches Massive Airstrike on Iran's Nuclear Facilities On Saturday night, U.S. forces struck Iran's nuclear sites at Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow using Tomahawk missiles and B-2 bombers with bunker-busting MOPs. The operation aimed to halt Iran's growing nuclear threat without seeking regime change. The Lead-Up: Peace Talks Failed, Iran Accelerated Toward the Bomb Despite last-minute efforts, peace negotiations collapsed when Iran's Supreme Leader couldn't be reached. U.S. and Israeli intelligence confirmed Iran was accelerating weapons development, missile programs, and plans for a potential strike on Israel. The Strike Plan: 125 Aircraft and Precision Targeting The operation involved over 125 U.S. aircraft and coordination with Israeli and Arab allies. All aircraft returned safely. Early satellite imagery confirms severe damage to nuclear facilities, though some equipment may have been smuggled out to China before the attack. Iran's Response: Missile Strikes, Terror Threats, and Strait of Hormuz Threat Iran fired missiles into Israeli cities, injuring civilians, and warned of sleeper cell attacks in the West. Its parliament is considering closing the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil passage, which could trigger wider war. Russia, China, and Europe React Russia threatens to provide Iran with nuclear warheads. France warns of Iranian terror cells in Europe. The U.S. and Arab allies brace for retaliation while some quietly support Israel's actions. U.S. Homeland at Risk from Sleeper Cells FBI Director Kash Patel ramps up counterterror operations, especially with concerns about Iranian saboteurs among the millions of unvetted illegal immigrants. Border Czar Tom Homan blames Biden-era immigration for the heightened risk. What Comes Next: Regime Change, Retaliation, or Peace? President Trump insists regime change is not the goal, though he hints at it. Arab leaders back Israel privately. Europe fears a terror wave. America must now prepare for blowback, both at home and abroad. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32 Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Today's episode delivers rapid-fire coverage of the top global and domestic developments shaping America and the world. FBI Monitors Iranian Sleeper Cells as War with Israel Escalates The FBI increases surveillance of suspected Hezbollah operatives inside the U.S., fearing possible terror plots as Israel continues strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The false report of a hit on Iran's Bushehr plant sparked regional panic, though other key nuclear sites have been damaged. Israel Eyes Fordow Strike as U.S. Prepares Stealth Bomber Option Israeli commandos may attempt a daring assault on the heavily fortified Fordow nuclear facility. Meanwhile, the U.S. considers launching B-2 stealth bombers from Diego Garcia. The base's new lease with China-friendly Mauritius complicates disclosure requirements, raising diplomatic concerns. Peace Talks Stall as Trump Warns Iran and Public Opinion Backs Action Trump's updated peace offer was rejected by Iran. Polling shows 75% of Americans support preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, even if force is necessary. However, some polls show less support for direct U.S. involvement. Trump Withdraws More U.S. Troops from Syria American forces are being consolidated to a single base, with local allies stepping in to fill the gap. The reduction reflects Trump's goal of letting regional players secure their own territory. Panama Sides with China on Canal Ports A Chinese state-owned consortium will take over port operations on both ends of the Panama Canal, rejecting a U.S.-backed bid. The White House is expected to respond next week to this strategic setback. Trump Extends TikTok Sale Deadline in Violation of Law Despite a congressional mandate, Trump grants another 90-day extension for ByteDance to sell TikTok. Legal challenges are expected, though both parties are hesitant to anger young voters. Democrat Governors Cut Off Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants Budget overruns in California, Illinois, and Minnesota are forcing Democrat leaders to scale back health coverage for undocumented migrants. The cuts reveal higher-than-expected migrant numbers and usage, raising questions about official immigration estimates. Portland Decline Mirrors Leftist Unrest Antifa violence continues in Portland, with attacks on ICE facilities and widespread downtown decay. Court documents cite homeless encampments and drug use inside landmark buildings like the U.S. Bancorp Tower, now for sale at an 80% loss. Poll: Democrats Losing Christian Voters Nationwide A new poll shows Christians across denominations overwhelmingly reject the Democratic Party. While Black Christians remain a core base, overall trust is eroding fast, especially in light of cultural and moral concerns. Trade War Hits Canada, Spares Mexico U.S.-Canada trade fell by 10.5% in May, while Mexico saw only a 2.8% drop. Analysts point to Mexico's more diplomatic tone with Trump compared to Canada's confrontational approach. New U.S. Battery Could End Dependence on China A Boston firm, Pure Lithium, is developing a battery that avoids Chinese-dominated minerals and uses lithium from Arkansas. The company could receive $300 million in federal backing to scale production.

Trump Approves Iran Attack Plan While Israel Intensifies Bombing President Trump has privately approved an attack plan for Iran, likely targeting the Fordow nuclear site, though he is delaying execution in hopes of a last-minute peace deal. Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes continue throughout Tehran, including the destruction of Iran's internal police headquarters. The UN reports that Iran's highly enriched uranium is missing following the bombings, raising fears of further escalation or a nuclear breakout. Rwanda and Congo Peace Deal Secured Through U.S. Mediation Decades of conflict between Rwanda and the Congo may finally end with a peace agreement set to be signed in Washington, D.C., on June 27. The deal, brokered with help from President Trump, could shift access to critical minerals like cobalt and rare earths away from China and into U.S.-aligned hands. Mineral Wars Continue: U.S. Scrambles for Antimony Supplies Amid a growing battery and defense crisis, China has cut exports of antimony, a critical metal used in everything from missiles to solar panels. The U.S. is now trying to revive an old mine in Idaho that supplied antimony during World War II. Industry officials are calling it a national emergency. Flesh-Eating Screwworm Threatens U.S. Cattle Industry A parasitic fly larva known as the screwworm is advancing from Panama into Mexico, endangering America's already strained beef supply. The Trump administration has launched a major containment effort, including building sterile fly facilities in Texas and Mexico to stop the spread. Supreme Court Upholds Tennessee Ban on Transgender Procedures for Minors The Court rules 6–3 in favor of Tennessee's law banning gender-related medical treatments for children. Chief Justice Roberts writes that the law protects minors based on age, not sex, and criticizes the “expert class” for ideological bias. The ruling puts decisions about such treatments in the hands of voters and state legislatures, not judges or federal regulators.

Trump Demands Iran's Surrender as U.S. and Israeli Pressure Mounts President Trump tells the Ayatollah to surrender unconditionally, warning that his location is known and he could be targeted. Meanwhile, U.S. fighter jets arrive in the region and Israel kills Iran's new war commander just four days into the job. Mossad continues its AI-powered campaign, using digital exhaust to track and eliminate key Iranian figures. China's Mysterious Cargo Flights and Strategic Interests A Boeing 747 cargo plane has been rerouted from Europe to Iran multiple times this week, raising suspicions that China is supplying Tehran with drones or military equipment in exchange for discounted oil and methanol. Bryan explains how Beijing's covert support could backfire diplomatically across the Arab world. Congress Pushes Back Against Presidential War Powers Lawmakers from both parties, including Rep. Thomas Massie and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, propose legislation to require Trump to seek congressional approval before launching offensive military operations. America's Border Holds the Line, Californians Push Back on Benefits for Illegals Border Patrol releases zero illegal migrants into the U.S. in May, a dramatic turnaround from Biden-era figures. In California, support for taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants drops sharply after the Medi-Cal system nearly collapses.

Trump Urges Evacuation of Tehran as U.S. Military Assets Move In President Trump calls for Tehran's 17 million residents to evacuate as the USS Nimitz and 31 refueling aircraft reposition toward the Middle East. Trump warns Iran cannot have nuclear weapons and says the U.S. will stay out of the war unless American assets are attacked. Iran's Ayatollah is now urgently seeking peace talks through Arab and Russian intermediaries. Israel Escalates Strikes, Iran's Military Decimated Israeli forces continue bombing Tehran and key military targets. Mossad agents have eliminated top commanders and scientists. Iran's air defenses remain crippled and its missile transport fleet is heavily damaged. Only Fordow, Iran's deepest nuclear site, remains intact. Zelenskyy Asks Trump for Weapons, China Disrupts Supply Chains At a global summit in Canada, Ukraine's President Zelenskyy pleads for U.S. arms. Trump is hesitant, partly due to China's squeeze on rare earth minerals critical to defense production. Although some exports resumed, licenses are limited, and military-grade minerals like samarium remain blocked. America's Rare Earth Emergency and Domestic Production Push Trump may invoke Cold War-era laws to jumpstart domestic rare earth mining in states like Wyoming, California, and Texas. A $120 million loan for a Greenland project signals the urgency of ending China's control over the supply chain. Confusion Over Trump's Immigration Orders Trump calls for ramped-up ICE raids in sanctuary cities but had paused enforcement at farms and hotels just days earlier. Following backlash from business and agriculture, the administration reversed course, then appeared to reconsider again. Meanwhile, a meatpacking plant in Nebraska raided by ICE now sees lines of job applicants, raising new questions about the true labor market.

Israel-Iran War Escalates as Trump Weighs U.S. Involvement Over the past 72 hours, Israel has launched a sweeping campaign against Iran, killing over 100 senior Iranian leaders, destroying nuclear facilities, and crippling oil and gas infrastructure.

Bryan explores the risks of U.S. involvement, including regime change, retaliation, and nuclear breakout threats.

Supreme Court Greenlights Trump's Deportation Plan – The Court rules that President Trump can end humanitarian parole for over 500,000 migrants brought in under Biden's CBP One App system.
